Men living with HIV (MLHIV) are less likely to engage in care than women, either never initiating treatment or experiencing interruption. Effective interventions to reach and retain men out of care are needed. Data is from an individually randomized control trial testing a male-specific ART initiation or re-initiation intervention targeting MLHIV not in care. Datasets relate to the primary outcome from the trial. ClinicalTrials.gov number: NCT04858243.
